Nutrition International is a global organisation founded in 1992 that works to address malnutrition through evidence-based, high-impact interventions. Headquartered in Ottawa, Canada, it operates in over 60 countries across Asia and Africa, reaching millions of children and women through its programmes.
The organisation's core activities span nutrition research, public health, policy influence, and the improvement of delivery systems. Its key interventions include vitamin A supplementation, food fortification to address mineral and vitamin deficiencies, and maternal nutrition programmes. These are designed as long-term, sustainable, and cost-effective approaches rather than short-term measures.
Nutrition International's team draws primarily from the development and public health sectors. The organisation's stated focus is on getting complex work right, with an emphasis on scalable solutions that can be delivered at population level in low-resource settings.
